EDITORS COMMENTS
Pontypool MP Leo Abse and his wife step back in time as they arrive at the Angel Hotel in Cardiff, ready to open the highly anticipated Cardiff Antiques Fair. The year is 1970, and this print captures a moment frozen in history. Dressed elegantly in Edwardian attire, Mr. and Mrs. Abse make a grand entrance in a horse-drawn open carriage, evoking an air of nostalgia and sophistication. As they gracefully descend from their transport, one can't help but be transported to another era. Leo Abse was not only known for his political career as a Member of Parliament but also for being an influential campaigner for gay rights during a time when such advocacy was rare. His dedication to fighting for equality shines through even in this seemingly unrelated event. The image showcases not only the couple's impeccable fashion sense but also highlights the significance of transport during that period. The majestic horses pulling the landau symbolize power and prestige while reminding us of simpler times before modern technology took over our streets. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to Leo Abse's multifaceted persona – politician, lawyer, campaigner – all rolled into one charismatic individual who left an indelible mark on Welsh politics.
